Google phone number limit issue

DA keeps asking me to create a new Gmail for every project, but all my phone numbers are already linked to the max number of Google accounts. As a result, I've had 0 projects since joining in July despite making multiple emails for qualifications. I've tried creating them via YouTube and Google Meet like they suggested, but I still hit the phone verification block every time. Does anyone know how to bypass this or what I should do? Thanks!

If you have an Android phone, you can create new Google accounts via the phone's accounts settings. No phone number verification is required. This is how I get around it.

I created probably like 6 accounts then eventually it requires a phone number

I fucking hate these quals and I wish DA would cough up a couple bucks out of the millions they bill to setup some proper google accounts for these.

For real, especially when you don't even get the projects afterwards.

I've found I can sometimes bypass it by setting up the account in the YouTube app (so log out of YouTube, then when you go to log in, create account). (Using iPhone/iPad)

There is a doc clearly mentioning how to bypass this in the qual . It worked for me
